Agüero and a bad memory of Sampaoli: “This crazy man leaves me out of the World Cup”

“For a player like me, who has been in the National Team for several years, his management seemed very strange to me, more than anything because of how the previous one was”began by telling Agüero, who won the Copa América in 2021.

“We had to present ourselves on May 22 and I went on May 8 because he called me and said ´come, you have to be the best 9 in the World Cup, come here (Argentina)´”said the former forward of the national team, and added: “I told him to give me some time to talk to my doctor, because since we were going to go to Barcelona and I was there rehabilitating myself, I thought about staying. I ended up going, I was one of the first and I trained like crazy, but after that there was something I didn’t like and this time I’m going to say it”.

“I’m not going to say the name of who told me, but they told me that if I didn’t train alongside the group, which was already full, I wouldn’t go to the World Cup. From then on everything seemed very strange to me, and we started badly. It wasn’t even the coach who told me, it was someone else. And although nothing happened, at one point I said ‘this madman is going to leave me out of the World Cup'”said the top foreign scorer in the Premier League.

With regard to his performance in the 2018 World Cup in Russia, Agüero assured that the match against Iceland on the first day was “one of the best” for him with the Argentine National Team.

“I had surgery before, I did everything to get there perfectly, I scored the goal in that game and ended up not playing. I was doing very well and it’s reality, in full condition,” said a sharp Agüero.

“I think it was one of the years that I prepared the best, and when I didn’t play in the second game, everything fell apart, because the coach told you one thing before, and in the World Cup he ended up doing other things”ended the former Independiente on the controversial conduct of Sampoli.

In the run-up to the draw for the 2022 Qatar World Cup, Agüero, in Doha, palpitated what will be the group stage and assured that the National Team “is always a candidate to fight.”

“You have to see the games and crosses, which are fundamental, but Argentina is always a candidate to fight for the World Cup. From the quarterfinals or semis, you have to meet the greatest. But clearly it is not the same to face countries that do not They are so complicated because those games can give the team confidence and, if you advance, you arrive with terrible confidence,” added the former attacker.

Argentina, who will be in pot 1 as the seed, could face each other in a hypothetical duel against Germany, which is in pot 2, so the former Barcelona was clear: “I would prefer to avoid them in the group stage” , he remarked.

“If Germany isn’t there, much better. But if they are, nothing happens because you know you have to qualify and, coming out first or second, it doesn’t matter to you. Later, you’ll meet them again in the final”Hill.
